SINOPSE
‘Janet Frame was a unique and troubled soul whose luminous words are the more precious’ HILARY MANTEL
‘Her dark, eloquent song captured my heart’ JANE CAMPION
‘All my preoccupations as a writer - my notions of home, beauty, madness of sorts and longing - come from her’ MEG MASON
There is nothing in the world the matter with me, except that I have been bathed in a trough and dipped under a waterfall and the pine-needles picked from my scars. . .
This is the story of the Withers family: Francie, soon to leave school to start work at the woollen mills; Toby, whose days are marred by the velvet cloak of epilepsy; Chicks, the baby of the family; and Daphne, whose rich poetic way of seeing the world leads to a heartbreaking life in institutions.
A dazzling, fierce cry of darkness and joy, Janet Frame’s debut novel is a poetic masterpiece and a timeless classic of New Zealand literature.
INTRODUCED BY MARGARET DRABBLE
‘The first great New Zealand novel and a modernist masterpiece . . . the book’s immense power to unnerve, astonish and impress endures’ Guardian

SOBRE O AUTOR
Janet Frame
Janet Frame (1924-2004), eternizada na autobiografia e no aclamado filme Um Anjo à Minha Mesa, de Jane Campion, é uma das maiores escritoras neozelandesas do século XX. Romancista, poeta e contista premiada, converteu um passado de pobreza e doença mental em literatura que faz «florescer mundos na mente dos leitores», segundo a crítica. Em 1952, o seu primeiro prémio literário salvou-a de uma lobotomia no hospício de Seacliff, experiência narrada no livro Faces in the Water (1961). A liberdade levou-a a Espanha e a Inglaterra, onde fez da escrita a sua razão de ser, e a um reconhecimento literário e escrutínio público a que, tímida e solitária, sempre fora avessa. Resistente às convenções do tempo, questionou na sua obra as fronteiras entre sanidade e loucura, a violência institucional e o estigma que paira sobre os ostracizados.
